Millwall prospect gets England call

Millwall Lionesses are delighted to announce that gifted young midfielder Lilli Maple has been named in the England U19s squad for the forthcoming Training Camp at St Georges' Park

Lilli joined The Lionesses this year, following her release from Chelsea Ladies Centre of Excellence, and made an instant impact, operating at the heart of midfield in Millwall's Development Team.

She made such an impression that she was handed a first team debut in Millwall's opening day FA WSL 2 fixture, helping the side take a point from a battling 2-2 draw at Watford Ladies.

Still only 18-years-old, Lilli's tough-tackling style and whole-hearted performances have seen her cement her place in The Lionesses' midfield holding role, starting 13 of the club's 15 league matches so far this season.
